Better specs than recommended, super bad lag on low settings.

I've been trying to play some games recently, and have TERRIBLE lag with absolute minimal settings. For example, Warframe, I did a check on my graphics card (GTX 860m) vs NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT, and it said my card was about 4x better, but I can't even run it on low. This goes for multiple other games. Any suggestions?

I have an intel i7-4700HQ and 2.40GHz, with 12 gigs of ram. I'm using an Asus computer. I don't know how to get the exact one.

Open GPU-Z and see wether or not you have a load on the nvidia GPU (using the sensors tab).Alternatively,open Nvidia control panel and look within application settings at the default gpu selected for it ,it should state "High performance Nvidia GPU".

I have tried this, and I don't notice a difference at all.
